Hi all,
I upgraded from a 1070 to a 2080 Ti and faced some issues, hoping you can all help answer a question or two.
I ran 3D Mark again and found I scored 9k now! I checked the results against the previous run and can see that I am getting around 20fps less on each of the tests. One thing that stood out to me was the core clock speed. I have a Gigabyte 2080 Ti Gaming, which states this should be at 1650, which is up from the 1500 the cards are usually that.
For the 3D Mark where I scored 11.1k, this has a core speed of ~1900. I noticed at the time of that run temps got to around 65-67 which is fine. The latter run, the temps didn't even get to 60. Which makes me wonder what changed here?
My question is, can anyone explain, why it seems that installing the drivers via the GeForce experience app, to get over my failed attempts before, seems to have resulted in different clock speeds being registered, an increase in performance and why now, I am scoring around 2k, and 20fps less?
Thanks in advance

- I uninstalled my 1070 via device manager and deleted the drivers, did not have GeForce Experience installed at this time.
- Restarted my PC, ran DDU, cleaned up the Nvidia drivers, installed the 2080.
- When trying to install the drivers 430.64 (the latest), the installer kept failing. It was telling me that it wasn't compatible with my version of Windows. Now it either did that, or started the install process, got to the "installing drivers" section and would then just say "Failed".
- I tried a previous version, same issue. It said I should try updating my drivers via the GeForce Experience app. So I installed that, run the driver checker and installed successfully.
- I then ran 3D Mark, as you do, and scored around 11.1k. Quite a substantial boost from the 6k I was getting with the 1070.
